It's a Sacred Unique, so... Duncraig, I guess? I know that that level has an increased chance of dropping Sacred items. Or if you can't handle Duncraig, maybe Kurast 3k, which is an easier level with a decent drop chances. Or Tran Athulua, which is an uberlevel with a bias for unique items. The Amazons are tough customers, however, especially if you're playing melee.

Anyway, I was doing some reading on item crafting, and I found myself wondering whether you can use a Sacred item for a runeword, then apply a Shrine bonus to it. Seems kinda overpowered if this were the case, which is why I'm wondering.

Hi.
Got a question about 'Reroll any Item to Unique'.
For example if I want to get Queen of Glass do I need to reroll specifically an Ancient armor (that looks like base for it) for this or any armor?
I don't understand how does it work.

Yes. For Queen of glass you need an ancient armor + 2 arcane crystals + oil of enhancement (the blue one) from Gheed. It always depends on the base item.

Shrine-crafting only works with Sacred Rares, so it wouldn't work.

Ah, I thought as much. Thank you for your time.

He didn't entirely answer the question. You can bless crafted rares and also Honorifics. You can also only runeword white, socketed gear. Can't be blue, yellow or unique.

I answered precisely the question he asked, which was specifically whether you could apply a Shrine bonus to a RW. You can't.

can we expect some kind of season summary stats this week ?
% of what classes were played and what builds
% how many players reached 121 or higher

something like this topic https://forum.median-xl.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=21012&hilit=season+stats
